Publisher's Summary:
Before, During, and After Stonewall: 100 Years of Heroes and History
The Right Side of History tells the 100-year history of queer activism in a series of revealing close-ups, first-person accounts, and intimate snapshots of LGBT pioneers and radicals. This diverse cast stretches from the Edwardian period to today, including first-person accounts of the key protest that is at the heart of the 2015 movie Stonewall.
The book shows how LGBT folk have always been in the forefront of progressive social evolution in the United States. It references heroes like Abraham Lincoln, Eleanor Roosevelt, Bayard Rustin, Harvey Milk, and Edie Windsor. Equally, the book honors names that arent in history books, from participants in the Names Project, a national phenomenon memorializing 94,000 AIDS victims, to underground artists and writers.

Having lived through this from the 40's to now , this was very inspiring and brought a lot of experiences into clarity. Our country still has a long way to go to catch up with the rest of the world.
Human Beings--Not Statistics
Drawing a nearly comprehensive sketch of gay and lesbian life today by exploring many facets of its development--fraught with pain and sorrow as well as joy and success, one leaves this book with a feeling of inclusion and hope for the future.
Five Stars
Great essay collection with good information and perspective!
History book that focus on the individuals that made it; concentrating on LGBT activists
Great compendium of LGBT heroes and their allies which demonstrates how activism of all sorts
runs like a current through the lives of so many relatively uncelebrated yet powerfully influential people
who have shaped the history of mainstream society so aptly documented by Brooks and the other writers\contributors
in this thought-provoking book
A great read.
